Once upon a time, there was a small town with seven sports balls named Baseball, Hockey, Football, Basketball, Table Tennis, Tennis and Badminton. Each ball was very different in size, shape, and color, but they all loved to play together.
One day, they were bored of playing the same old games and decided to switch things up. So, they each took turns trying out each other's sport.
Hockey tried playing baseball and kept sliding on the grass. Football tried playing basketball and kept bouncing off the rim. Table Tennis tried playing tennis and kept flying over the net.
Badminton tried playing hockey and kept getting knocked down by sticks. It was hilarious!
Finally, they all agreed that it's best to stick to their own sport and play together as friends. They had a great time and learned a valuable lesson about friendship and teamwork.
The End.
